Question for You

Blog readers, here is an ethics question for you. Is there anything wrong with continuing to meet with the Jehovah's Witnesses, going to their house for dinner, accept rides etc. when we have not one inclination to be converted, we are just curious and enjoy hanging out with them? I mean I am pretty sure they have come to like us somewhat but what primarily motivates them is the drive to convert us and I know Jehovah's Witnesses are not encouraged to hang out with unbeleavers other than to convert them and if they have to for work and stuff. We practically got job offers after going to dinner with them, well they asked if we had driver's licences and would have offered if we had.

You must have too calvinistic inclinations - even if it would be, in some absolute scale, somewhat wrong (which I doubt), you would be pardoned anyway, if there is anyone to pardon (a liberal lutheran perspective this)... More seriously speaking, it's surely no crime to have human contact and social interaction: who knows, maybe Jehova's witnessism is working its magic all the while in you, unconsciously! You might get converted and then it's surely ok.

Taylor, I already told them that religious tourism was my hobby but I could remind them of this.Mr. sheepandgoats thank you for your input. Your sugestion is appealing to my Lazy nature. :)Doreen, thanks for the info.Slender dude, Calvinistic, no absolutely not. I am sure Calvinists, other than the Mars Hill folk, are fine but I do not beleave would not be among the elect. The only hope for me would be forgivenes offered to all, cause I am way too big of a screw up for anyone to believe for a second I was among the elect. Besides their doctorine conflicts with my understanding of free will way too much.

That would definately be the wet dream of every evangelical. I do share my faith with them and if they think the grass is greener on the otherside they are welcome over but taking into account they have been Jehowah's Witnesses their entire lives and they would lose a lot, including their families which are the most important thing to them like most people that age they have very little incentive and would lose a lot.

About Me

I am a young woman getting old enough that calling my self a girl is starting to become a stretch.
I live in Finland.
I like skepticism. To me skepticism is not about refusing to believe but asking questions and looking for answers. Never accepting the established answers just because they are established but figuring it out for yourself.
